Pros

Health benefits and retirement benefits are very rich when comparing to other companies.Friendly co-workers are a pleasure to work with.The company is strong and stable -- the dominant insurer in its market.

Cons

Behind the times and slow to change.High market share allows for a passive and reactive strategy. This makes for a successful company, but can be frustrating for employees trying to move the company ahead more aggressively.

Lots of educational opportunities. Very challenging. GREAT people to work with. I was given the lattitude to perform my job and sustain my family life.

Cons

The expected amount if time SME's needed to put in was way too much to do on a regular basis. Senior leaders established dates without asking the people that implemented the projects and then expected the teams to meet the dates anyways. Drove poor quality. And even poorer (if that is a word) employee satisfaction.

Advice to Management

Stop the bickering between organizations. Don't set dates without estimating. Listen to the people that have been there for years, they know what can be done in a realistic timeframe.
